A faint light flashed in McDowell's eyes, and on the surface he still looked like he was smiling.

"Young master's wise eyes. Now Closebell has become a 'member' of the empire. I want to know... what the factional division in Erebonia has evolved after the Civil War."

"oh?"

Ryan looked at the old Speaker with a deep sense and asked, "What are you going to do if you know? Could it be... Are you planning to join in?"

"I am frank, this is a very dangerous behavior. As new members, you should focus on maintaining your own stability first. As for the future developments..."

Ryan looked at the old fox in front of him meaningfully, "Let's talk about it next time. I hope the Speaker can cooperate sincerely with the Governor. I will always pay attention to the development of Closebell."

...

After leaving the 36th floor and returning to the Speaker's office, Ellie finally couldn't help but ask her grandfather for the confusion in her heart.

"Grandpa... what you meant to talk to Ryan just now, shouldn't you want to participate in the opposition between the nobles and the reformists of the Erebonians?"

Speaker McDowell smiled and said, "Yes, my meaning is more simple. You should actually trust your own judgment more."

"But!" Ellie asked incomprehensiblely, "Has the two factions reconciled before? At least they are unlikely to continue to have a dispute in a short period of time. What will we take the initiative to participate in this factional struggle?"

Mayor McDowell sighed and leaned on the back of the chair and asked in emotion, "Ally, do you really think the struggle between the two factions will ease with the end of the civil war?"

Ellie shook her head, "I don't think so, but with Prime Minister Osborne's retreat, have the nobles already obtained his promise? At least they shouldn't..."

"Haha~" Speaker McDowell gently patted his granddaughter's hand. "Elie, you're thinking too simple. Prime Minister Osborne is not the kind of person who will be limited by promises."

"Yes, the prime minister should not attack the nobles again in a short period of time, but who can be sure that he will still keep his promise in half a year, a year, or even three to five years?"

Speaker McDowell saw the thoughtful look in Ellie's eyes and comfortedly advised, "The so-called guarantees of politicians are the most unreliable, so don't believe such verbal promises."

"The noble alliance also knows that the prime minister will inevitably launch his iron-blooded reform again in the future, but the achievements of this civil war have won a precious time for their transformation, and both sides are well aware of each other's plans."

"Since we have joined Erebonia now, at least before we get another chance to independence, we must find the right position for Closberg in the opposition between the two parties in the empire."

"It is impossible for a neutral faction to be on the fence. It will only be alienated by the two factions. It is easy to miss many important opportunities, so..."

Speaker McDowell looked at Ellie meaningfully and asked, "Do you think it is more beneficial to close to the nobles with more moderate means to the point of being close to the Lord Osborne, who is famous for his iron-blooded skills?"

...

Ryan didn't know what the old speaker had taught her granddaughter after he left.

After returning to the Mishuram Welcome Hotel, Ryan asked Lixia to help her put on makeup and disguise, and then used her breath to fine-tune her physique.

When he walked out of the Welcoming Hotel again, Ryan had become a powerful man who looked powerful and powerful.

Quietly avoiding the maid and housekeeper of the welcome hotel, Ryan slipped out of the main entrance and walked swaggeringly on the Mithuram's Avenue.

The tourists who come and go obviously would not know that this stout man was a distinguished guest of Closbell.

After returning to the city by re-boarding the tour boat, Ryan came straight from Harbor District to East Street.

Looking at the familiar East-Way street and the slightly depressed abortion, Ryan sighed softly, "Sure enough... many Republic immigrants living in East-West have left Kezhou and returned to Kalwade... I don't know if Sangsang is still there."

After disguising, Ryan walked along East Street Avenue. When he passed by Acacia Village, he happened to see Ms. Clarice watering flowers in front of the apartment.

Judging from her mental state, it seems that there is not much change compared to before, but another housewife next to her seems a little worried.

When Ryan passed by the two, he happened to hear their discussion, which was nothing more than what Closebell should go after being occupied by the empire and whether he should immigrate and leave.

The East Street Guerrilla Association, when Ryan pushed the door open, a familiar greeting immediately came.

"Welcome to the Guerrilla Association, do you have anything to help?"

Michelle is still the same, with a strong physique and a bold appearance, but she prefers to use a feminine "soft" way of speaking.

Seeing Ryan's face after disguised, Michelle apologized and said, "Sorry, my speaking habits scare you, don't worry, I am the receptionist of the association, please come in and talk in detail."

"cough……"

Ryan coughed lightly, glanced at the lounge on the second floor and asked, "Can you find a quieter environment? I have important things to discuss with the association."

"Hmm?" Michelle was stunned, but it was not the first time he encountered such a request. Soon he smiled and nodded, "Of course, please follow me to the second floor."

While still upstairs, Ryan became more sensitive after breaking through and heard the discussion coming from the second floor.

"…I didn't expect him to return to Closebell in this capacity. To be honest, my mood is a bit complicated."

After this cheerful female voice, a man with a somewhat cold tone sighed.

"This is also impossible. After all, Erebonia has just ended the civil war, and its national strength has inevitably suffered some damage."

"If we don't take action first to occupy Kezhou, the empire that destroyed the Garelia Fortress by the divine machine will have no solid defense line in the east."

"Once Closbeer is preempted by the Republic, the empire's broken eastern border will be directly exposed to Kalwad's military frontier, which is absolutely nothing more than the empire's acceptance."

A gentle male voice said helplessly, "This is the so-called conflict of positions. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. Everyone has their own different demands."

The gentle female voice finally said, "Lin, as a Republican, your innate position will be biased towards Kalwald, and vice versa, Wincheer."

"As guerrillas who wander around the world, you will have this difference in your opinion, let alone the people of ordinary empires and republics."

"cough!"

Michelle coughed gently at this time and interrupted the discussion of the four people. He walked to the second floor first to introduce Ryan to the four people present.
Chapter completed!
